The role of major mergers in triggering super-Eddington accretion
Riccardo Caleno, Tommaso Zana, Raffaella Schneider +6
JWST observations have opened a new era in the exploration of the high-redshift Universe, revealing black holes (BHs) with masses of several million solar masses already at ,…
The LISA Astrophysics MBHcatalogues Project: A comparison of predictions of simulated massive black hole binaries
David Izquierdo-Villalba, Melanie Habouzit, Matteo Bonetti +67
In the hierarchical paradigm of galaxy formation, central massive black holes (MBHs) are expected to coalesce after the merger of their host galaxies. One of the main goals of the…
Gravitational Waves from the Cosmic Dawn: Tracing Cosmic Black Hole Binaries with ET, LGWA and LISA
Nazanin Davari, Rosa Valiante, Alessandro Trinca +8
Next generation detectors, such as LISA, LGWA, and ET will, for the first time, probe the high redshift Universe, offering unique insight into the birth, growth, and dynamics of th…
Catching the Nebular Needle in a Polluted Haystack: Line-emission Signatures from Population III-forming Pockets around Massive Galaxies at the End of Reionization
Alessandra Venditti, Luca Graziani, Raffaella Schneider +10
Finding the first generation of (Population III or Pop III) stars is one of the most ambitious and exciting challenges of astrophysics. JWST opened concrete prospects for their det…
Hunting the first Cosmic Giants: formation and detectability of Direct Collapse Black Holes around high-redshift quasars
Alessandro Trinca, Alessandro Lupi, Zoltán Haiman +4
The rapid emergence of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the early Universe poses a challenge to current models of black hole growth. One promising formation pathway is the direc…
A deep X-ray look to the most obscured quasar at z~3.6 and its environment
I. Villani, L. Zappacosta, E. Piconcelli +17
The most luminous and obscured quasars (QSOs) detected in infrared all-sky surveys could represent a key co-evolutionary phase from nuclear to circum-galactic (CG) scales in the fo…
